By Myself
By myself
I sit in the dark
Eyes open n still looking inward toward this heart
Observing this whole picture back from start
Listening to knocks from skeletons that's locked
They bang all day n night
I on the otherside plead my plite
Looking ur way
Feeling ur pain
Try shooing way the insects of dismay
For the moment anyway
Missing u much going crazy in brain
I failed
Ur lacking to stay
Finding reasons In everything
Becuz of the relentless pain
The easily recognizable disdain
Thru out the day n night will be the same
By myself
In mental n physical frame
Heart beating faster than an addiction to nicotine
Missing the feeling of ur head on my chest as u lay
Hand tucked under my side n u soft snoring away
But I'm optimistic only at ur way
Even now I still remain
Praying for strength
Wisdom for actions n serenity sent ur way
I'll hide the fact that I cry inside
Let it out when I'm by myself
Chill, always trying to help the uff out
Give u ur time ur space
Negative words escaped ur face
Only becuz of being fed up with all the drama gained
Time that had been a waste
I would love for u to see I'm here n ain't going nowhere
Even when I'm by myself I don't care
I'll pray n wait becuz I'm still here n u will again see the love......Peace
